Has anyone come up with a good way to fasten a carpet down? I insulated with 
Ensolite and then carefully fit a piece of carpet. Problem is every time I 
push forward with my feet to exit, the carpet slides forward slightly.  After a

dozen or so flights it's bunched up ahead of the rudder pedals. I don't want to

glue it down nor do I want any fasteners through the belly.  Ideas, Please!  
Gotta be be an easy, simple way.

Thanks, Bob D

Try Carpet tape.  Available at your local building supply (Lowe's, etc.)

Bob,
My floor carpet is glued to 1/2" padding and then some heavy cardboard
material, the kind they use in upholstery.  It is then laid in the floor
sections with the end butting against the firewall.  This makes the whole
assembly rigid enough that the carpet does not bunch up when getting in/out,
and is still easily removable.  No fasteners.

Dale
